Court Vacates EPA Determination On BART for North Dakota Haze Plan

摘要

The Environmental Protection Agency improperly failed to consider pollution controls already installed at a North Dakota power plant when it issued a federal implementation plan to address the state's obligations under the Clean Air Act's national visibility goals, a federal appeals court has ruled (North Dakota v. EPA, 2013 BL 254118, 8th. Cir., No. 12-1844, 9/23/13).
